Our Story

Back in 2017, my world crumbled; when my dad passed away suddenly. 

My son was only ten months old at the time, and I often wondered if he would be familiar with the memory of the time they had spent together or how this loss would affect him in years to come. 

I knew I wanted to bring comfort to children and families who were facing the same heartbreak; I  just wasn't sure in what direction I wanted to go.

It was only a short while after trying to find something for my close friend, who was also faced with the same reality, that I noticed a lack of heartfelt gifts or books that helped children through the passing of a loved one. 

From this point, I knew in my heart I wanted to open a dialogue surrounding this very sensitive subject.

My debut book “ Twinkle just like me” is a reminder that although a loved one may be gone, their presence can still be felt by those that cherish them. 

Losing my dad became a springboard of inspiration to create Kinspire. 

It may have begun with a book, but it has grown to be much more. Because At Kinspire, we know that Children look to the world around them for comfort, understanding and inspiration. We offer a safe space of relatable comforts and positive affirmations for young children and their families, particularly in difficult times of loss and trying phases of life.

We proudly offer Fos, Omni and Gigi, our enchanted friends from the book  “Twinkle just like me” as plushies and prints.

Making meaningful gifts for children and families experiencing grief.
